2008 Ford Escape, Ignition switch Diagnostic and Installation!!!

[@757gamerguy2]

I replaced the switch but now the car won’t turn it all. All the lights turn on I hear noise in the car but it won’t turn! What’s going on? Should I replace the whole ignition housing?

So you don't have to replace the Ignition Lock Cylinder on this vehicle when the key has to be pressed in to start?

[@JCMotiveGarage]

No, that’s only if you have a problem with the key getting stuck when you take it out.

@@JCMotiveGarage oh. Thanks

​@@JCMotiveGarage mine won't start turning it over if I put tape around the switch it works for a few days

[@mikeypierce73]

Is this what I need to replace to make it turn over easier I put the tape on the back of the switch around the part that sticks out

[@WillieFufu-lo1nb]

@mikeypierce73 put black electric tape around it then super glue all over the tape & let dry before you put back in.
